We were finishing up a unit on geography, mapping, and archaeology, before we begin our study of the prehistoric periods, so I though it would be fun for the kids to design their own islands!
I took out the Crayola Model Magic, paint and let them have at it.....
[Image]KM decided to draw out a plan for her island on the whiteboard first. [Image]Then they formed the bases and began painting. [Image]Next she formed the higher points, painted them, glued them on and stuck toothpicks in to be able to label them after it was dry. [Image]She named her island "Homeschoolmania" and declared that EVERYONE WOULD BE HOMESCHOOLED HERE!
[Image]SC's was a bit less structured, but I believe it would be a very interesting place to visit!
